K Drawing.

To all whomz'tmay concern: Be it known that I, ADAM GONDERMAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at La Verne, in the county of Los Angeles and 5 'State of California, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Belt Dressings, of which the following is a specification.

This invention appertains to a novel co n pound for treating the surfaces of drive belts and the like and the primary object of the invention is to provide a dressing for belts, which can be easily applied to the belt and which will effectively prevent the belt from slipping, when the same is in use.

Another object of the invention is to provide a novel belt dressing, which not only acts to prevent the slipping of the belt in use, but which also acts as means for pre-; v serving the belt and for preventing undue formula for belt dressings as will now be described.

In accordance with'this' invention, I a vehicle of extra heavy lubricating oilwith' which is combined rosin and bees wax. As

stated the lubricating oil .forms a vehicle for the'rosin and the wax adds abodyto the compound: The rosin held in the lubril' I eating 011 forms an effective means for preventing the slipping of the belt. 'The use of Application fled May 1,

I out departing from the 1925. Serial No. 27,810.

' and prevents the belt from cracking.

Further the oil and wax provide protecting coat for the belt and prevents undue wear thereon.

I prefer to use the following amount of the ingredients: v

One-quart of extra heavy lubricating oil, Two pounds of rosin,

Three ounces of'bees wax.

The rosin and the bees wax are placed directly in the oil and the oil'is placed upon asuitable stove and allowed to boil until the rosin and the bees wax are dissolved. The entire. mixture is now allowed to boil approximately fifteen minutes until the-same I begins to foam after which the mixture is I taken from the fire and is allowed to. cool for twelve hours, after which thesame is ready for use.

From the foregolng description, it can be seen that I have provided a novel compound for belt dressings which will be easy to make and cheap to place on the market.

Changes in the details may be made withthis invention, but

What I claim as new is: 1. Abelt dressing comprising of extra heavy lubricating oil, two pounds of rosinand three ounces ofbees' wax.-

ing of one quart of lubricating oil, t'wd' pounds of .rosin and.three ounces of bees wax, the oil being allowed to boil until the bees waxand rosin age dissolved, and the en- 75 tire mixture foams, and then allowing the mixture to cool for. twelve hem-s1.
